Notes. Numbers in parentheses correspond to the constraints obtained when considering the Galactic ISRFs from Porter & Strong (2005) in the calculation of IC emission. Note that we do not consider any population of accelerated hadrons associated with the radio-SC-emitting electrons in the two-zone models (Kep is then left undetermined). We also fixed Emax,p to 100 TeV in the leptonic scenarios.
